Our team gives a "Swimmer of the Year" award to a boy and girl in each age group. To receive this award, you have to receive the most points for the team at the dual swim meets throughout the season. If you aren't familiar with swim team ... if you are one of the top finishers in an event, you receive points (7 pts for 1st, 5 pts for 2nd, etc) and these points are totaled to determine which team wins a meet.
Rylan was the high points winner for the 6 and under boys!!!
What is even cooler ... instead of a trophy or plaque, our coach (who is also an artist and teaches at Brentwood Academy) painted a canvas for each winner. It is really awesome! And Rylan is SO EXCITED!!! Carter is still trying to deal with it - he won the same kind of award when he was this age when he swam for the F.A.S.T. Frogs but the plaque he received doesn't mean as much to our little artist!
The award:
Branson (he was on Rylan's soccer team when they were 3 and I still coached!) won the award for the 7-8 boys:
